Muybridge Inspired - Gregory Barsamian

Gregory Barsamian is an artist who deals almost entirely with motion and likes to play withe the illusion of things moving and transforming before the viewers eyes. He likes to have a somewhat surrealist look to many of his pieces. He began working with kinetic art like this around 1889 when he discovered the wonder of the zoetrope, a device that could make a series of frozen images into a loop of fluid moving images that portrayed motion. Although a device like this had been created long ago and had since been used as a toy, he took it much farther than this and created some amazing large-scale pieces that seem to tell a story when turned on. When looking at one of his pieces in its static form it won't really look like much, but when it is in motion and looked upon at the right angle the product is illusionary and creates a whole new meaning.
